2-Chloroethyl phosphonates

摘要

The present invention relates to 2-chloroalkyl (2-chloroalkyloxy)hydrocarbylphosphinylpropionates and a process for the preparation thereof. The invention also includes combinations of the said 2-chloroalkyl (2-chloroalkyloxy)hydrocarbylphosphinylpropionates with organic polymer substrates, such as polyurethanes and polyesters, in order to impart enhanced fire-retardancy to such otherwise flammable substrates.
